ohidesignblog - winter coat guide

This San Diego gal is moving to Boston which means she is going to need more than a light sweater/cardigan to keep her warm. Okay, Okay, I am not originally from San Diego…I am from Oklahoma where we actually have pretty cold winters (including ice and snow sometimes). That being said, I DO have a couple of jackets that have been stored away for over 3 years now. But, now that I have been in San Diego for three years…I forgot how to be cold. Sounds silly, right? I think it’s about time to invest in a nice coat that will REALLY keep me warm while we are living in Boston.

Which coat is your favorite? Does anyone have any winter wear tips/favorite products?

All the euro babes rock those puffers with hoods. Zara has some cute ones 🙂 Love you little snow bunny! Hope Boston is everything you wanted and more! Xo

Layers are your best friend. Embrace them with love. =) This east coast winter is no joke.

Yes! Layers are a must right?! Thanks Brandi 🙂

Hi Jessica! It’s been a lot time, but I stumbled upon this and keep up with you via social media 🙂 I actually lived in Boston last year and LOVED it! You’ll really enjoy it. If you ever want suggestions of things to do, places to try, etc. let me know. I wanted to echo what Jordan said about the knee length puffy coat. You can definitely have a cute wool coat for nice evenings or something, but I would not have survived the winter with out my North Face puffy coat.

It sure has been a long time Madison! Thank you for your advice 🙂 I didn’t realized you lived in Boston – that’s amazing!! Hope all is well.

i lived up in nyc and philly for the past year and a half. I would def recommend you have some kind of knee length puffy coat with a hood…looks stupid but you will thank me later!!!

Thanks for the tip Jordan! Yes, I am all about the bigger + the puffier the better…as long as I am warm, I don’t care if I look like a circus clown. Ha! Cheers! – Jessica
